Topic: getting extra marshals (Read 69 times)

Its happened to me a few timesHotel booked collection( van sorted if its a bike event) and the bikes electronics pass out day beforeorHotel booked ,car sorted Bang cam belt on last try out run on the thursdayI am going to be a non starter.......

Both times I have contacted chief marshal and gone down in normal car and marshalled used hotel and had planned weekend awayWhy cant we regularize that situation refund part of entry fee if the Non Stater becomes a marshall?publish the option it on the entry form.....

Actually I just had a look at last LET results there were about 20 non starters now even if 50% they were ill or had a more urgent appointment 10 extra marshals with a cash incentive to attend (not even allowing for passengers) seems like a good addition

Excellent Idea.

However unless you knew you were going to be a non starter a month or so before this would not really save hills from being cancelled. But it would put extra marshals on hills and fill in the gaps if a marshal could not make it.

The sooner we know about availability the better, but nonetheless worth adding a note at least to the our comms channels if not the entry form - good idea.

a more than fair observation ( see what i did there ) that entries could be part refunded for non starters observing on the event. However once the printer has had his instructions your 'expense' is locked in so I suspect that a part refund would not amount to very much, non the less a valid proposal for consideration.
